This is a great video! Great job getting the original history of such a piece to resurface again. I blindly bought a relic condition m18 off of eBay for dirt cheap, I saw the photos and it really looked like a berndorf behind-the-lug rivet and was luckily right, seller didn't know I suppose. Such an interesting piece of first world war history, yours is in very nice condition. I love your inclusion of the era photographs.

A great video , thank you. I have 2 German m16 helmets but they have both been painted. However I have British made Vickers helmet as used by the Irish army. Very similar shape. I think I'll try your method on it.

would appreciate likes and comments.... kind regards W

Very tasteful, minimally invasive method.

I like that instead using new stuff you fixed the old stuff

Nice work!

Finally a really nice restoration job. on youtube I have seen many restorations but one much worse than the other. can I ask you if you are from Wien?
